SAN ANTONIO, TX / ACCESSWIRE / October 30, 2017 / Camber Energy, Inc. (NYSE American: CEI)(the "Company" or "Camber"), based in San Antonio, Texas, a growth-oriented, independent oil and gas company engaged in the development of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids in the Hunton formation in Central Oklahoma and on the San Andres formation in the Permian Basin, of Texas, announced production updates today:
The recompletion of the 5th well, in a six well recompletion program in the Coyle Field, located in Payne County, Oklahoma, was completed on the 23rd of October. To date, actual recompletion costs are approximately 45% below estimates, while production levels are significantly above projections. The 6th, and final well in the field, should be completed within the next few days, commencing production by end of month.
"Camber is currently negotiating a renewal of a long term purchase agreement with its midstream buyer for all of the Coyle Field production. The contract is expected to include a stair step incentive to the Company for higher volumes. The Company anticipates realizing a meaningful increase in revenues in the coming weeks and months once the NGL dominate production in this field is produced and sold downstream," stated Richard N. Azar II, the interim CEO of Camber. "The contract renewal should enhance the Company's ability to maximize revenues and incentivizes to actively move forward with a geologically sound drilling program."
The Coyle field is a Hunton formation de-watering program that produces light oil, natural gas and abundant natural gas liquids. Dewatering operations in the Coyle Field began in 1999. According to published reports, remaining gross Proved Developing Producing (PDP) reserves are estimated to be approximately: 23,530 barrels (Mbbl) of oil, 3,500 million cubic feet (MMcf) of gas, and 813,710 barrels of Natural Gas Liquids (NGL). The wells in this field are at an average depth of 4,500 feet, and vary with single and dual laterals per well. Sustained average total wellhead production levels are expected to range from 2.3 to 3 million cubic feet per day (MMcfd) with 1,525 average British Thermal Unit (BTU) gas.
